Highlands Bankshares, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2019 Results
ABINGDON, Va., Aug. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Highlands Bankshares, Inc. (HLND) today reported net income of $571,000 or $0.06 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1.1 million or $0.10 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and net income of $923,000, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The annualized return on average assets and return on average equity for the second quarter of 2019 were 0.37 percent and 3.89 percent respectively.
"Second quarter 2019 was significantly impacted by our continued focus on asset quality," reported Bryan Booher, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer. "We recorded $836,000 in provision for loan losses during the second quarter, primarily to replenish the allowance for credit losses following a $565,000 charge-off recorded on a single relationship after we completed foreclosure proceedings. While our efforts to resolve this large exposure were painful to second quarter net income, we removed a significant problem asset from our balance sheet."
"Aside from the credit-related items, our second quarter of 2019 was generally in line with the first quarter. Noninterest income improved slightly and noninterest expense declined when compared to the first quarter, while net interest income was flat," Booher continued. "Our sales efforts during the second quarter were successful, with the loan portfolio growing $9.4 million after two quarters of net shrinkage. Deposits have grown $15.6 million or 3.1 percent so far during 2019."
Consolidated net income for the six months ending June 30, 2019 totaled $1.6 million, compared to $1.5 million earned during the same period of 2018 as the benefit of lower noninterest expense was largely offset by higher provision for loan losses.
Revenue Growth
Second quarter 2019 total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) increased slightly to $6.0 million. Net interest income was $5.1 million in both the second and first quarters of 2019, as the favorable impact of loan growth offset a 9 basis point reduction in the net interest margin. Second quarter 2019 noninterest income totaled $933,000 compared to $890,000 in the first quarter of 2019 due higher BOLI and cardholder interchange income.
Noninterest Expense and Operating Efficiency
Noninterest expenses increased slightly over the first quarter of 2019, the net impact of lower personnel and occupancy expense, partially offset by higher legal and other professional fees. In the second quarter of 2019, the efficiency ratio was 75.36 percent, compared to 75.91 percent in the first quarter of 2019.
Asset Quality
The provision for credit losses for second quarter 2019 was $836,000, compared to $103,000 in first quarter 2019. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2019 totaled $689,000, or 0.62 percent annualized of average loans held for investment, compared to $380,000 or 0.34 percent annualized of loans held for investment for the first quarter of 2019.
Past due loans as a percentage of total loans held for investment were 1.26 percent at June 30, 2019, compared to 1.36 percent at March 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, loans greater than 90 days past due totaled $3.4 million, or 0.74 percent of loans held for investment, compared to 0.77 percent at March 31, 2019. Nonperforming assets were $8.3 million, or 1.83 percent of loans held for investment and OREO at June 30, 2019.
